For those that haven't read my previous posts, i'm trying to be able to test
locally my site php site. My installation (both apache and php) went
smoothly. But instead of using the htdocs folder for the test i wanted to
use the c:\website folder. So with some help from you guys i manage to
configure the httpd.conf file (in the conf Apache subfolder) like this:
#this is the bottom part of the conf file
<VirtualHost website.localhost>
DocumentRoot "C:\merda"
ServerName website.localhost
</VirtualHost>
<Directory "C:/website">
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4
#Next line is optional (for viewing source)
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</Directory>
and in the hosts.sam file in the C:\Windows\
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 website.localhost
It "sounds good to me. So why it doesn't work? Any ideas?

Make sure you have also set correctly the path to your webserver in your
php.ini.

Why not just set your DocumentRoot to "C:/"
or set up an alias - its much more likely to work than a virtual host
Alias /C/ "c:/"
<Directory "c:/">
DirectoryIndex index.php index.htm index.html
</Directory>
you would then access as
http://localhost/C/

Sorry, but neither of these suggestions work on my server, and it would
probably run into problems if one of the "Mot"s had a _ at the beginning or
end. Nicola's first offering gives:
Mot1_;Mot2_;_;_;_;_;_;_;_Mot3_;_;_;Mot4_;_;_;_;_Mot5_;_;Mot6
The second one gives:
Mot1;Mot2;;;;;;;_Mot3;;;Mot4;;;;_Mot5;;Mot6
My solution? Recursively replace ";;" with ";" until the string doesn't get
any shorter. This one works and is pretty neat:
<?
$str = "Mot1;;Mot2;;;;;;;;;;;;;Mot3;;;;;;Mot4;;;;;;;Mot5;;;;Mot6";
$length=-1;
while ($length != strlen($str)) {
$length = strlen($str);
$str = str_replace(";;", ";", $str);
}
echo $str;
?>
Returns:
Mot1;Mot2;Mot3;Mot4;Mot5;Mot6
as required

Ross

Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] String reduce
I added the underscore artificially in order to make the string become
Mot1_;__;_Mot2_;__;__;__;__;__;__;__;__;__;_Mot3_;__;__;_andsoon;;;M
ot4;;;;;;;Mot5;;;;Mot6
so ONLY the first(s) ";" begin with just ONE underscore
the other begins with 2 underscores, so you can recognize them
and strip them away.
the correct version would be
$str = "Mot1;;Mot2;;;;;;;;;;;;;Mot3;;;;;;Mot4;;;;;;;Mot5;;;;Mot6";
$str = str_replace(";", "_;_", $str);
$str = str_replace("__;_", "", $str);
$str = str_replace("_;", ";", $str);
The string is:
Mot1;;Mot2;;;;;;;;;;;;;Mot3;;;;;;Mot4;;;;;;;Mot5;;;;Mot6
then becomes
$str = str_replace(";", "_;_", $str);
Mot1_;__;_Mot2_;__;__;__;__;__;__;__;__;__;_Mot3_;__;__;_andsoon;;;M
ot4;;;;;;;Mot5;;;;Mot6
then becomes
$str = str_replace("__;_", "", $str);
Mot1_;Mot2_;Mot3_;Mot4_;Mot5_;Mot6
then becomes
$str = str_replace("_;", ";", $str);
Mot1;Mot2;Mot3;Mot4;Mot5;Mot6
It's horrible but it works... ( yet I didn't test it )
Bye

you could do it like so, also:
<?
$str = "Mot1;;Mot2;;;;;;;;;;;;;Mot3;;;;;;Mot4;;;;;;;Mot5;;;;Mot6";
while ( strstr(";;", $str) ) ## if exists ;; in $str, replace with 1 ;
$str = str_replace( ";", $str );
?>
works for ya, I hope.

well, my code was wrong:
> $str = str_replace( ";", $str );
should have been:
$str = str_replace( ";;", ";", $str );
but doesn't seem to work anyway.

Here it is, but I used preg instead:
<?
$str = "Mot1;;Mot2;;;;;;;;;;;;;Mot3;;;;;;Mot4;;;;;;;Mot5;;;;Mot6";
echo "Before: " . $str . "<p>";
/*
while ( strstr(";;", $str) ) ## if exists ;; in $str, replace with 1 ;
{
$str = str_replace( ";;", ";", $str );
}
*/
while( preg_match( "/;;/", $str ) )
{
$str = preg_replace( "/;;/", ";", $str );
}
echo "After: " . $str;
?>
And it works!
;)

Easiest solution I can think of would be to find a copy of the dos
executable, pkzip and use the exec(); command to run that. Otherwise I'm
stumped

Subject: [PHP-WIN] PHP and ZIP
I thought I had seen some functions for creating zip files with PHP. I can't
find what I'm looking for to specifically create .zip files that are
decompressable by, say, winZip.
Anyone have experience creating .zip files with PHP? If so, could you point
me to the name of the function for doing this?
I found ZLib, but this doesn't seem to do what I want.
Much appreciated and TIA!

winzip, though - if has a command line. But thanks anyway.

SQL servers can store pre-programmed sequences of SQL instructions in
a "subroutine" type format for simplified execution of standardised
functions. These are known as Stored Procedures.
